SEATS AND HEAD RESTRAINTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
1.27
SAFETY FIRST
The correct adjustment of the seats is
important for:
– reaching the controls safely and quickly.
– relaxed low-fatigue body position.
–
maximum protection from the seat
belts and the Airbag System.
Warning
•
It is important to maintain a dis-
tance of at least 25 cm from the
steering wheel or instrument
panel so that the front seat occu-
pants have the best possible
effective protection if the system
is triggered. In addition, the front
seats and the head restraints must
be adjusted to the body height.
For seat adjustments see the "Front
Seats" chapter. Please also note the basic
positions for the driver’s and passenger’s
seats on this page.
Warning
No items must be kept in the
footwell, as these could block the
pedals in case of sudden braking.
Consequently, it would be impos-
sible to brake, change gear or
accelerate.
Feet should remain in the footwell
when the vehicle is moving, never
resting on the instrument panel or
seats.
Driver’s seat
We recommend that you position the dri-
ver’s seat as follows:
– Set the driver’s seat forwards/back-
wards in such a way that the pedals can
be fully depressed with a slightly angled
leg.
– Set the backrest in such a way that it is
fully against your back and that you can
reach the upper point of the steering
wheel with your arms at a slight angle.
Front passenger seat
We recommend that you position the front
passenger seat as follows:
– Backrest in an upright position.
– Place the feet in the footwell in a com-
fortable position.
– At the same time push the seat back as
far as possible.
